INTRO 🔔

Hello World! 👋
Today we are discussing another custom hook🪝 named useFluidFont🔥. In this post, we will discuss this hook usage, code and use case.

USAGE 🔔

As a front-end developer 😎, I know responsive designs are crucial in web development. Changing font size based on screen size is the main important thing in responsive design. Usually, we use media queries in CSS 🎨 to achieve this. However, it leads to lengthy code and multiple media queries for different screen sizes 🙁. But, by using the useFluidFont🔥 custom hook, we can achieve the same output with efficient code practice 😊.

WITH MEDIA QUERIES 🔕

.container {
    font-size: 24px;
}

@media screen and (max-width:1280px) {
    .container {
        font-size: 22px;
    }
}

@media screen and (max-width:1140px) {
    .container {
        font-size: 20px;
    }
}

@media screen and (max-width:980px) {
    .container {
        font-size: 18px;
    }
}

@media screen and (max-width:720px) {
    .container {
        font-size: 16px;
    }
}

WITH CUSTOM HOOK 🔔

📌 NOTE: before creating this hook, we need to create another hook named useWinowResize🚀. It is already created on our custom hook series. Please check 👉🏻 useWindowResize

import { useCallback } from "react";
import { useWindowResize } from "./useWindowResize";

export const useFluidFont = () => {
  const { width } = useWindowSize();
  const getFont = useCallback(
    (minFont, minWidth, maxFont, maxWidth) => {
      if (width <= minWidth) {
        return minFont;
      } else if (width >= maxWidth) {
        return maxFont;
      } else {
        return `calc(${minFont}px + (${maxFont} - ${minFont}) * ((100vw - ${minWidth}px) / (${maxWidth} - ${minWidth})))`;
      }
    },
    [width]
  );
  return getFont;
};

USE CASE 🔔

import React from "react";
import "./styles.css";
import { useFluidFont } from "./useFluidFont";

function App() {
  const font = useFluidFont();
  return (
    <div>
      <div className="container">HELLO WORLD</div>
      <div style={{ fontSize: font(16, 720, 24, 1280) }}>HELLO WORLD</div>
    </div>
  );
}

export default App;

CONCLUSION 🔔

By using the above hook, we can change the font size of application responsively without using multiple CSS media queries.

I hope you people like the useFluidFont hook. We will meet with another hook in another post.

Peace 🙂
